Also I liked when maxime bernier called out Singh for saying Singh opposed Bernier being invited to the debate, and Singh responded by saying everything bernier has said at the debate tonight proves that Bernier has no place being at the debate.

It was a pretty good burn

Oh huh,Singh I just noticed you wear an orange turban (since he literally just made a joke about it).

@Wipqozn Well this is the talk of the office this morning, which isn't even remotely surprising. Oh and a few folks in the office actually know her personally hahaha holy fuck. Why couldn't that protester just keep her mouth shut.

@Yuuki Thing is, IMHO this changes the situation from "Blizzard bans a player because they try to bring public attention to a local geopolitical issue" to "Blizzard fires 2 casters for goading a contest winner into making a political statement they might not otherwise have made, and has no choice but to punish the player"

In the latter case, it feels like the main issue is the casters are trying to bring their political message using the medium of the player, and the casters are justifiably fired for that. The player is collateral and is used to send a message to other players to not react again in this way

@Elva Because he did something against the rules, and even though they might to some extent support his message, they still need to punish him because otherwise every esports player is gonna do this

@Elva yeah, but if he made the same statement in favor of nazis, or in favor or against socialism, or in favor or against democracy, he'd get the same punishment. A post-match interview is NOT the right place to promote your political point

Like, I agree wholeheartedly with what he said, I also disagree that he should be punished for it, but I can see the logic behind an international company that is about to release a major mobile game on the Chinese market not wanting their star players to offend that giant market
